If you've stopped on the M40, do this first

  • Pull onto the hard shoulder or into an emergency refuge area if you can, as far left as possible, wheels turned to the left.
  • Hazard lights on. At night or in poor visibility, sidelights too.
  • Leave by the passenger-side doors and get behind the barrier, up the bank if there is one.
  • Do not attempt a repair, and do not put out a warning triangle on a motorway.
  • If you cannot get off the running lane, stay belted in with hazards on and call 999.

Recovery on the M40

The M40's northern end runs up through Warwickshire to meet the M42 near Solihull, passing Warwick, Leamington and Gaydon. The junctions are widely spaced and much of the route is rural, so a breakdown here can feel a long way from anywhere \u2014 our Warwickshire operators cover it, and you will see a live ETA as soon as one accepts your job.

What it costs

The callout for your vehicle type, plus the per-mile rate for wherever you're going, plus a £15 motorway premium for the extra safety requirements of working on a live motorway — which goes to the driver in full. You see the total before you confirm; your card is held then and charged when the job is done.

Questions

Do you recover vehicles from the M40?
Yes. We cover the M40 24 hours a day for breakdowns, accidents and immobile vehicles. A £15 motorway premium is added to the price and shown before you confirm — it covers the extra safety requirements of working on a live motorway, and it goes to the driver in full.
What should I do while I wait on the motorway?
Get your vehicle onto the hard shoulder or into an emergency refuge area if you can, put your hazard lights on, and leave through the passenger-side doors. Wait behind the safety barrier, up the bank, and away from oncoming traffic — never stay in the vehicle on a live carriageway, and never attempt a repair yourself. If you cannot leave the running lane, call 999 immediately.
Do I need a membership?
No. There is no membership, annual fee or contract. You pay per job at the price shown before you book.
How much does motorway recovery cost?
You see one all-in price before you book: the callout for your vehicle type, the per-mile rate for the distance, and the £15 motorway premium. Your card is held at booking and charged when the job is complete.
